I have created a home cloud project, for sharing files across your devices on the same network. Please do check it out and star it if you like the project. There are more features yet to come which I have planned. Thank you
I've never tried it but DeskGap lets you build a desktop app like Electron, but it uses your existing installed version of Chrome instead of bundling it's own Chrome engine inside the app so it keeps it much more lightweight. Might be interesting for you https://deskgap.com/

Tauri: An Electron alternative written in Rust
> I kind of wonder why it took this long for someone to try this approach. It just makes a whole lot more sense on the surface.
Like other replies have mentioned, it's not a new idea
DeskGap uses the native OS Webviews. https://github.com/patr0nus/DeskGap/
Electrino (4 years old) was an experiment where they forked Electron and removed Chromium to replace it with the native OS Web views. https://github.com/pojala/electrino
Quark is a fork of Electrino: https://github.com/jscherer92/Quark
There's also a way of building desktop GUIs using Deno, which uses Deno Webview, which is a binding for the same webview library that Tauri uses.
